With respect to daily, freshly produced water, the Milli-Q® IX system is intended to dispense pure water that meets or exceeds water quality specifications described by the organizations below: European Pharmacopoeia - Purified water, U.S. Pharmacopeia - Purified water, Japanese Pharmacopoeia - Purified water, Chinese Pharmacopoeia - Purified water, ASTM® D1193 - Type 2 water - Reagent water, ISO® 3696 - Grade 2 water, Chinese National Standard - GB 6682 Grade 2 water
Set up convenient water stations throughout your lab by connecting two E-POD® dispensers up to 5 m apart.
Keep working as Volumetric Dispense mode fills glassware to your set volume (1 ml increments from 20 mL to 99 L). Simply push the button, the screen or the foot pedal to repeat
Interact with ease. The smartphone-like touchscreen allows intuitive use, even with gloves on!
Capacitive touchscreen Size: 5 in; Resolution: 800 x 480
Complementary purification technologies remove contaminants to deliver consistently high-quality pure water directly from tap water.
IPAK Gard® pretreatment pack
High efficiency removal of colloids, particles, free chlorine and minerals for improved system performance
Advanced RO
• Removes 95–99% of contaminants including ions, particles, bacteria and organic molecules (MW >200 kDa)
• Decreases water consumption and ensures a constant flow rate
• RO recovery loop optimizes water recovery vs. standard RO systems and reduces water consumption"
Elix® EDI module
• Removes remaining ions for consistently superior quality pure water
• No maintenance, ensuring low and predictable running costs
ech2o® bactericidal UV lamp
• Mercury-free UVC LED technology emitting at 265nm provides highest efficiency bacterial inactivation"
Intelligent pure water storage tank provides
multi-targeted prevention of bacterial, particulate and
CO2 contamination.
Within the tank, pure water quality is preserved by 3 built-in features:
- Vent filter, redesigned for seamless integration, provides improved protection against airborne contaminants
- Automatic Sanitization Module (ASM) with an integrated mercury-free ech2o® UVC LED lamp emitting at 265 nm, regularly irradiates stored water and tank walls, preventing bacterial growth and biofilm formation.
